Chapter Twenty-Three: Cutting the Weeds and Eradicating the Roots
The thin man looked at these things, and didn't have time to ask more, just cooperated with him to put these things up.
Finally, he took out four grenades from his backpack and handed them to the thin man, pinned the seven-hole machete, and ran out of the tent with arrows, bullets, crossbows and thin men.
The movements of the two people are actually not slow, and the time before and after is no more than five minutes.
On the battlefield, although there is only a short time of five minutes, it is possible to end the battle in these five minutes, and it is possible to win a big victory or be completely wiped out within five minutes, so time depends on the human factor is very large, and on the battlefield it is more possible to limit the true meaning of the phrase time is life.
At the sight, Xu Jiandong and the thin man were both surprised.
The thin man looked at it and said to Xu Jiandong on the side: "I said Brother Xu, what kind of worm is this, this kid is a little too big, right?" If this guy hadn't mutated, how many centuries would it take him to grow into such a big man...............?! ”
The head of this huge monster insect is about three meters tall, and its head has binocular eyes, but the head is no longer triangular but somewhat like a human head, a large mouth full of long teeth opens and closes, and a transparent and disgusting liquid flows outward, and the four long legs with black and gray markings are full of hard red jagged barbs, and a pair of short, thick forefeet actually have human-like, dry mummy-like claws.
"I think this big insect must be the ancestor of those one-eyed insects, what kind of virtue has the mutated, I'm afraid that in another 1,800 years, it will be able to become a sperm, I ............... it!" The thin man looked at the huge strange insect in front of him and said in surprise.
Around this huge monster bug, there are hundreds of small one-eyed monster worms, the size is not much different from the ones that came before, I think it must be some of the defeated soldiers who gathered later and were not killed yesterday, and the insect king who is now surrounding them is swaggering and gradually approaching this side.
The big man Lao Hu's shots didn't shoot directly at the huge monster bug, but only killed some of the small bugs that walked in front, and the ten rifle bullets were quickly used up.
The big man Lao Hu has his reasons for doing this, first, he wants to let the huge monster insects retreat and make an example of them, so as to stop them from getting closer, so as to give himself more time to fight back, and second, he is not sure that he will kill this huge monster worm at all, but instead cause them to burst into anger and rush up, which will be miserable.
Xu Jiandong pulled the wire hard with his left hand, "Click!" With a soft sound, the wire string had been hung on the lock behind the archer of the arc crossbow, and a metal rod with a bullet head was pulled out of the quiver behind him and placed on the launch bracket of the arrow crossbow.
Without looking back, he shouted, "Qiangzi! I'll shoot that big bug first, and at the same time as it explodes, you throw all four grenades into the swarm, don't leave any of them, don't leave ............! ”
The thin man agreed, took four grenades from his pocket, aligned the scales, and was ready to press the button and throw them at the swarm.
"Grandma's, there are no bullets in the gun, I'll go into the tent to get the bullets, Lao Xu, you and Qiangzi will take a ......... outside first." After the big man finished speaking, he limped with a semi-automatic rifle, and quickly turned around and got into the tent.
Xinyu and Xiaoting didn't dare to come to the tent, they just looked at the thrilling scene of this human-insect war from afar, and at the same time sweated for Xu Jiandong and them.
After the big man Lao Hu entered the tent, he rummaged in the military backpack for a long time, and only found one bomber, thinking, fuck, it's over now, that big bug, ten bombers may not kill it, this bullet is good for a fart.
In desperation, he threw the semi-automatic rifle onto the bunk, casually picked up the seven-hole machete standing next to the bunk, and rushed out of the tent.
"Lao Hu and Qiangzi, you two should pay attention......... The blood of these bugs is acidic, and if it sticks to the skin, I am afraid that it will be burned, and I think the plastic cloth may not be afraid of acidic ................ Xu Jiandong said to the big man Lao Hu and the thin man.
Yiyan reminded the thin man, handed over the two grenades to the big man Lao Hu, and put the remaining two into the trouser pockets of his military pants, turned around and rushed into the tent, found a few convenient bags from the backpack, ripped them open, wrapped them around the exposed flesh on his arms, and wrapped a towel around his head to cover his nose and mouth, and then put on a large-brimmed cloth hat for special forces.
Seeing the thin man playing like this, Xu Jiandong and the big man Lao Hu couldn't help but feel funny, but no one could laugh, thinking: "This strong man really has some ability to invent and create, maybe his method can work." ”
and Xu Jiandong nodded, and the three of them were ready to attack.
"Whoosh!" With a soft thud, the metal arrow with the bullet head was carried out by the powerful crossbow elastic arm, and slammed into the head of the giant monster insect.
The huge monster insect was also very good, and even when the arrow was about to hit itself, it suddenly turned its head to the left to give way to the fatal blow.
The arrow whistled over the insects and slammed into a bowl-sized tree pole behind them.
"Boom!" There was an explosion, and in the firelight, the struck tree pole was shattered by the barrage, and the large red fireball burned in midair.
The giant monster let out a strange cry, picked up two forelegs that looked like withered human hands, and made a preparation for the attack.
How could Xu Jiandong give it this opportunity, hung the wire string with force, quickly pulled out the second arrow bullet from his back, and put it on the frame of the bow and crossbow.
The thin man turned to the big man and shouted, "Throw the grenade!" I said Lao Hu, what are you waiting for............?! ”
As soon as the words fell, the two people threw the grenades in their hands into the swarm of insects one after another.
Some of the one-eyed insects had already suffered a lot in the last battle, and when they heard the sound of the explosion, they immediately became confused, and they were frightened to run around in a hurry, and some of the less courageous ones simply turned around and fled.
However, they had not even run a few steps before a dozen one-eyed insects flashed out from behind the huge strange bugs, and they were dismantled by a jagged leg.
Seeing the big man, Lao Hu couldn't help but scold: "I*! I can't imagine that the discipline of these birds and insects is quite strict, it seems that today they are here for revenge, and they have the heart of death............! ”
Although there was no discussion on how to throw in advance, these two people were not ordinary people, and the four grenades were thrown in just the right position, basically covering the entire swarm.
As soon as the grenade was thrown, the three of them lay on the grass one after another.
For a while, explosions rang out one after another, fires flashed, and gunpowder smoke rose in the air.
The corpses of the smashed cyclops, severed heads and severed feet scattered violently in all directions as if it were raining.
Xu Jiandong, the thin man and the big man Lao Hu thought to themselves, this burst of bombardment must have dealt with the insect king.
Because the grenades thrown out this time turned out to be not incendiary bombs, but real bombs.
After four loud bangs, although many bugs were killed, there were still some bugs with injuries and those that were not blown up and continued to press this way.
However, the general trend has gone, and before Xu Jiandong can release the arrow again, the thin man jumped up, brandishing the American-made big dog-legged hunting knife, like chopping sugar cane, and in a blink of an eye, more than a dozen one-eyed insects were separated from each other.
Because the big man Lao Hu did not do the necessary protection like the thin man, and because he had a wound on his leg, he was inconvenient to move, so Xu Jiandong did not let him come forward to help, for fear that he would be burned by the acidic blood of the insect, and handed over this arduous task to the thin man alone.
The yellow blood and internal organs of the insects splashed and sprayed outwards under the slash of the thin man chopping melons and vegetables.
The skinny man was splattered with the acidic liquid on his body, arms, and pants.
Dozens of insects were killed by the thin man in less than a cigarette.
Under his feet, the corpses of the insects that were shattered and hacked to death were stepping towards the huge monster that was curled up in the middle of the insect array, and the body was still smoking.
Just in case, Xu Jiandong took out the third arrow bullet, hung the steel string, and was in a state of shooting at any time.
White smoke began to rise from the thin man's clothes and pants, and it was light, but he could smell the burning smell of burning cloth.
The big man hurriedly shouted to the thin man walking in front: "Hey! Hadron! You come back quickly, take off your clothes and pants, and you won't be in a hurry when it's late............! ”
The thin man was shocked when he heard this, and turned his head to look at the big man Lao Hu, because he was still wearing a towel, so he didn't smell the unpleasant smell of his clothes being burned.
The big man Lao Hu dragged his injured leg for a few steps, stepped forward and grabbed the thin man's arm, and walked back.
The thin man was a little puzzled, and was about to ask him what he was doing, when he suddenly felt a burning sensation coming from his body, and this feeling became stronger and stronger, so that he could hardly bear it.
When I looked down in a hurry, I saw that the blood of insects was splashed on my thighs and the clothes on my chest, and there was a faint blue smoke emitting outward.
Hurriedly pulled the towel covering his mouth and shouted.
"I'm .........! Damn it! Burn me, these birds and bugs! What are you spraying all that............?! As he spoke, he threw the American-made big dog-legged hunting knife in his hand on the grass, and took off his clothes and pants in a hurry with both hands, and the big man Lao Hu was also helping on the side.
"Old Hu, thin man! Hurry up and run back! Hurry up and don't look back............! Xu Jiandong suddenly shouted loudly to the two people at this time.
Xiao Ting and Xinyu on the other side of the tent also shouted, their voices full of panic and panic.
The thin man reacted quickly, and knew that the situation must be bad, so he pulled the big man and ran towards the tent.
It turned out that Xu Jiandong stood there and didn't go over, but he still held the arrow, bullet and crossbow in his hand, just watching the two people's every move, of course, including the thin man taking off his clothes.
Just as the thin man took off his pants, a huge black thing suddenly stood up behind the two of them, something that was all too familiar to him.
It was the giant monster that was injured by the explosion and didn't die.
It's incredible that this cunning giant monster insect didn't die under such a wild bombardment, perhaps because of its thick leather armor.
The huge monster worm quietly stood up from behind the two people, and slowly raised one of its forefeet with its still smoking body.
The forefoot must have been a weapon designed for capture and combat, a short, thick piece of jagged red barbs and hand-shaped claws, ready to sweep horizontally towards the two unsuspecting humans in front of them.
If you hit two people in one swoop, you would have to be cut in two by the row of sharp jagged barbs on your forefoot.
As soon as the huge strange insect stood up, Xu Jiandong noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly raised the special arrow crossbow, aimed at its head, and shouted at the same time to remind the thin man and the big man.
The big man Lao Hu and the thin man, just ran two steps, and the huge strange insect swept the front foot horizontally, and the momentum was extremely fierce, unprecedented.
When the two of them heard the sound of the wind behind them, they were already shocked into a cold sweat, and the speed of running immediately increased when they were strengthened, and even the big man Lao Hu, who was injured on his legs, even forgot about the pain at this time and ran wildly with the thin man, yes, he knew very well that even if the injury on his leg was very painful, he had to grit his teeth and stiffen at this juncture.
Xu Jiandong's arrow flew over with a soft sound, almost grazing the left cheek of the big man Lao Hu.
This arrow was so close to the big man's face that it could make the big man feel the strong and cold wind.
The big man ran back in surprise while covering his left face and scolded: "I said fucking Lao Xu, what are you doing here?" Shoot the bugs or shoot me, can't you stay away from my big face? You almost didn't get rid of my old man............! ”
Xu Jiandong didn't have any kung fu to talk to him, as soon as the arrow shot out, before he could hit the target, he pulled out another arrow bullet and put it on the bowstring with a very fast technique, and held it up in a firing state.
As soon as the big man Hu finished speaking, the arrow had already hit the abdomen of the huge strange insect
